Working paper of the geographer Javi Martín on the European cross-border space, analyzed from the vision and the policies developed by Pasqual Maragall.

Martín Uceda studies the thinking and action of Pasqual Maragall and moves him to the present day to conclude that many of the problems of the transboundary and regional space that Maragall already addressed more than 30 years ago remain valid. This work-paper reviews the process of evolution of cross-border cooperation, the influence on the role played by Pasqual Maragall and the specific case of the Pyrenees-Mediterranean Euroregion.
